Anyone got any to share of the great campsite banter? I remember in 2013 some drunk teenager scaled one of the lamposts/flagpoles that are around the campsite although while dangerous the fact he was extremely drunk made it to the top Shouted " T IN THE PARK EHHHHHH" then got chased and lifted for it will live with me forever.

Me and a couple of my friends were singing tenacious d - tribute and got a round of applause from ppl around us for getting through the whole song although last year all round was great campsite atmosphere the weather definitely brought out the best in people

A guy I met called Jenkins last year threw what he thought was someone else's tent in a campsite fire, before then realising that he had thrown his own tent in and had nowhere to sleep that night.

Also, while I was sleeping, I was woken up by the sound of a ned sobbing, saying "Boaby, you've ruined ma weekend!" on the Thursday night with a very strong accent. I don't know why, but that kept me laughing all weekend.

Helping start a mini rave outside the Duracell stage after it had closed on the Sunday night/monday morning years back. Some guy had walked pasted us blowing this little whistle that would light up, we all started jumping around him egging him on, this soon blew into a fair sized group, the guy lasted about an hour.

in the horrific weather in 2012 i seen some lass obviously drunk but very annoyed by the mud and her lack of ability to walk in her wellies fall over face first into a big swamp of mud. she was obviously very annoyed, she started sobbing when i told her she had fallen over in the swamp that was created by the portaloos right next to where she fell over. her mate was in stitches tho!

Was heading back to my tent at about 3am on the Saturday morning last year, when i could here music coming from the distance and it seemed to be getting closer. Two minutes later I noticed the source of the music, some wee ned was running through the campsite with a massive boombox with Avicii - Levels blaring out of it.

Thought i was seeing things to begin with...

We were waiting on James Brown in 2005 outside King Tuts, my mate had taken mushrooms and was enjoying his trip when he tugged on my sleeve and said holy fook, as i turned round there was some manky bitch having a shit right next to him. The look on his face was priceless.

Favourite moment: Me and a friend had a wrestling match in the arena in 2009. We managed to get an audience of about a 100 folk by the end of it, and people came up and shook my hand at the end of it.

Funniest Moment: Me and 4 people I was camping with at about 5AM on the Saturday, all realised we had brought Smoked Pork Mattessons Sausages to TITP. It was such a massive coincidence and because we were all wasted, we probably spent a good 15 minutes laughing at it. Not that exciting a story, but hardest I've ever laughed at T.

Weirdest Moment: Seeing a girl change her tampon out in the open next to the portaloos, without a care in the world.

    • Hezbollah rejected it. Really Israel should get the f**k out, and US and others should support the Lebanese govt in defeating Hezbollah.
